Chapter 21 Xie Yun's Skills
That night, Xie Yun entered the space and first checked her inventory. After she got the space, she started buying seeds and planting. In the era when she lived in, all kinds of seeds could be easily bought and the price was not expensive.
She not only grows grains, vegetables and fruits, but also flowers and medicinal herbs.
What's outrageous is that there is a house in her space, which was built by Xie Yun himself.
In order to learn how to build a house, she took courses in architectural design and even apprenticed to an old bricklayer, learning the techniques of building walls and applying cement.
The old bricklayer was the father of a volunteer who frequently worked at the orphanage. After Xie Yun became independent, he often returned to the orphanage to help out. He became familiar with the volunteer and, upon learning during their conversation that her father was a skilled bricklayer, expressed his desire to become his apprentice.
The volunteer and her father were both shocked. They couldn't understand why a girl who graduated from university, held multiple certificates and was still pursuing further studies would be so desperate to learn to be a bricklayer!
But Xie Yun was willing to learn and pay tuition, so the retired old man who had nothing to do at home got some bricks and cement and taught her for a while.
Xie Yun was a quick learner, and the old man sighed after teaching him for a short while, "You were born to do this! Learning a craft is great. Craftsmen always have something to eat. Let me tell you, being a bricklayer is very lucrative these days. You can make around 400 yuan a day, and if you're skilled, 500 or 600 yuan is no problem. It's not less than what you make working in an office. It's just tiring. It's hard-earned money."
Xie Yun learned from him how to build walls without string, using his eyes as a ruler. He also learned how to create various designs on the walls with cement. The old man was self-taught and had no art training, but he could create a peacock with its tail spread on the wall with cement! Xie Yun was in awe of him.
After learning, Xie Yun bought various materials and built a house in the space. She almost fainted from overusing her mind. However, after that period of time, she could clearly feel a qualitative leap in her mental strength.
To Xie Yun at the time, this space was a bit like an infrastructure game. He had such a vast expanse of land, stretching as far as the eye could see, and it would be a waste if he didn't build something on it.
Xie Yun felt a sense of accomplishment as he watched the space transform from an empty and desolate place into a very beautiful manor. The key point was that it didn't cost much.
After all, everyone knows that in modern society, the most expensive thing is labor. When building a house in the countryside, only one-third of the money is used to buy materials.
When Xie Yun built her own space, she only had to pay for the materials and did everything else herself.
At the time, Xie Yun had no idea if this dimension would ever be open to her. She simply felt that the spiritual power she gained from building it would be enough to benefit her for the rest of her life. She went from being an average smart person to a super-smart person, learning everything with twice the result with half the effort. It was simply amazing.
Not to mention that space can make money.
Everything she grows is of good quality. In addition to eating the harvest herself, she also stores some of it and sells some of it.
In order not to waste her high-quality ingredients, she specially learned cooking skills and obtained a "senior technician" chef certificate, which is the highest level of chef certificate.
In order not to waste her certificate, she opened a private restaurant. It is closed on weekdays and only accepts reservations. Most of the time, it provides door-to-door service.
The big donors to the orphanage are basically rich people. When they go to the orphanage to visit the children, Xie Yun cooks for them herself under the banner of thanking them, which opens up the situation in one fell swoop. Her small restaurant basically only serves these customers.
In order to sell goods, she bought a big truck and traveled around the country whenever she had time, selling a little here and a little there.
Travel and pick up some local specialties.
It’s just that traveling by truck is not very convenient, and you have to stay in highway service areas most of the nights.
Although product traceability was already a priority at the time, many buyers and distributors across the country still didn't care. As long as the product was good, they would buy it without questioning its origins. This made things easier for Xie Yun.
Before doing these things, Xie Yun first learned Sanda and trained herself to the seventh level. Later, she continued to practice, but did not take the exam. When she had practiced enough, she went abroad again. At that time, she was already very proficient in mind control and could collect things in space within 100 meters.
With the help of this ability, Xie Yun bought some weapons for free, including guns and ammunition.
Only when he was able to ensure his own safety would Xie Yun dare to travel alone and drive around the world in a truck.
Even so, she was very careful.
I felt reassured by the inventory on my space, and sorted out some things I could sell: raw rehmannia, chrysanthemum, honeysuckle, angelica, and coptis root. I'll go to the herbal medicine purchasing station tomorrow to ask. I'm selling a pound or two of them, which is not a big deal.
She actually also planted various kinds of ginseng, but unfortunately those things were not produced in Liushutun, so she couldn't sell them.
Xie Yun practiced martial arts in the space, took a shower, and flipped through a few books in his collection: "Pig Breeding Techniques," "A Complete Guide to Practical Rabbit Breeding Techniques," "Modern Practical Chicken Breeding Techniques," and "Efficient Scorpion Breeding."
There were scorpions in the mountains around here, and Xie Shen would go up there in the summer to catch them, sometimes catching 20 or 30 and selling them for two or three yuan. The big ones were ten cents each, and the smaller ones were eight or five cents.
Next April, as soon as the scorpions finish hibernation, I will ask Xie Shen to catch some, raise them at home, and then breed a batch.
The growth cycle of a scorpion is quite long. It usually takes about three years for an egg to grow into a full-grown scorpion.
The next morning, after breakfast, Xie Yun put angelica, rehmannia and polygonatum in a basket and went to the commune carrying it on his back.
Xie Shen went to school, and Zhang Ruifeng, with nothing else to do, went to the fields to pick up leftovers. Her daughter had harvested so much yesterday, so she wanted to try, too. If she couldn't find food, could she find insects?
She even thought that in the future, when she dug peanuts and sweet potatoes, she would just bring a dense basket with her and pick up insect pupae while working. These things would be everywhere when digging sweet potatoes and peanuts. She could dig out a few every time she used the hoe, and she could pick up a whole basket every day.
It takes an hour and a half to walk from Liushutun to Taoyuan Commune. Xie Yun has good physical strength and endurance, so he didn't feel tired.
The medicinal materials purchasing station is together with the supply and marketing cooperative. In fact, it is a small corner in the supply and marketing cooperative. Taoyuan Commune does not have many medicinal materials and does not plant them. It is not worth opening a separate store. They just hang a sign of the medicinal materials purchasing station next to the supply and marketing cooperative sign to let everyone know that if they have medicinal materials to sell, they can come here.
